(D) Sucrose $(C_{12}H_{22}O_{11})$ is a carbohydrate that undergoes dehydration in the presence of concentrated $H_2SO_4$. Concentrated $H_2SO_4$ acts as a strong dehydrating agent and removes water molecules from the sugar. The reaction is: $C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} \xrightarrow{	ext{conc. } H_2SO_4} 12C + 11H_2O$. Since the products are carbon and water,none of the given options $(A, B, C)$ are correct.
